So what are they...Joecooool said:They are still running there, the reason I ask is because I just got the new C6 Corvette's numbers and wanted to see how they compared.

It seems that there are 20KM, 22KM & 24KM times so without knowing more one what lenth the C6 ran we can not compare the times.
Well, you would be mistaken. The C6 is more powerful than the GT3 and just a little under the power of the GT2.I would not think a C6 would have a chance of running with a GT3 or GT2.
The 2003/4 GT3 runs in the 7:40's somewhere, i"ll see if i can find the exact #. If Chevy didnt fix the vette brakes then no way it can compete with the porsches and the like...Joecooool said:7:56 - Corvette C6

Joe I'm sorry but your statements indicate you have little to no track time under your belt or you would know that the z06 is no match for either the gt2 or gt3 on the track, and i'm not talking 1/4 mile... the c6 may be a closer mtach if chevy made some improvements to the chasis and brakes, both weak points of the vette. btw, somewhere i probably have footage of my old modified boxster toasting a z06 at the track...Joecooool said:20,832 km length Well, you would be mistaken.

Please don't say that the Porsche can outhandle a Corvette, that school of thought has been obsolete since the introduction of the Z06.
If a Z06 could handle these cars, its only logical to think the next generation Corvette would as well.
The new Z06 to be introduced in Detroit later this year will be the fastest, best handling American made car ever - and that includes the new Ford GT. I got that straight from Dave Hill's mouth not four days ago at the National Corvette Museum.
There will be one of those parked next to my Elise in 2007...

And yours indicates your a typical Porsche driver. Otherwise you would know that the Z06 is a world class competitor when it comes to track times.Later Apex said:Joe I'm sorry but your statements indicate you have little to no track time under your belt or you would know that the z06 is no match for either the gt2 or gt3 on the track, and i'm not talking 1/4 mile... the c6 may be a closer mtach if chevy made some improvements to the chasis and brakes, both weak points of the vette. btw, somewhere i probably have footage of my old modified boxster toasting a z06 at the track...
vettes are fine cars but if you think they are the be-all and end-all of sports cars on the track you are sadly mistaken....
